It has been\\u2026 a week. So many people have questions, and we don\\u2019t have a ton of answers. We are taking a creative approach to this episode, and will be going forward. We are meeting in VR to record this, and had a few audio hiccups. We hope to have those ironed out in the weeks to come. This episode we talk about social distancing and our thoughts/approach to following issued guidelines. We invite you to share your thoughts, and join us in being vigilant for those that are most vulnerable to this disease we are seeing sweep the world more and more each day.
